ABOUT

Hello!

Welcome to ESP, I'm Elizabeth, a Londoner and magpie for all things rose gold (not copper, repeat not copper!), with a penchant for skincare she can't afford!
  
I live in South London with my 'Gosig Golden' Muchamore. As a self-confessed homebody, it's a constant goal of mine to explore the city I'm so lucky to live in more often and stop watching so much Netflix (but we all know that's never going to happen!).

I aim to post every week on 'ESP' however my workload is consistently changing so excuse me if I'm absent for a few weeks every so often - life's always hectic!

Stick around, sift through the archives, and perhaps give 'ESP' a follow if you're feeling fab?
A girl who not only can dance the entirety of the HSM 'We're All in This Together' routine but can also quote most Gavin and Stacey episodes would much appreciate it.

GENERAL INFO

Why 'ESP'?
My blog name has changed a lot - from 'The Lil' Beauty Blog' to 'A Blushing Blonde' which this was for about 3 years, and I loved that name, but since my blog is no longer so concentrated with beauty posts, I needed something more fitting to a lifestyle blog - and what better name than that of the person whose life the blog's about?

What size are you?
Anything from an 8 to a 14 depending on whether it's a top or jeans - we need consistent sizing high street shops!

What skin type do you have?
I have dry/combination skin - it's mostly dry but can sometimes get oily in the T-zone and is very dehydrated. In the past, I've suffered from acne and blackhead prone skin, however I managed to clear that up with some lifestyle and skincare changes explained in this post.

Can I use your photos/graphics on my blog?
Sure - just email me at lizzie.petts1@gmail.com and I'll confirm it, as well as you crediting the image wherever you use it.

What camera do you use?
Pre-June/July 2014, I used a pink Lumix DMC-FS10 - would not recommend though! From July 2014 to October 2016 I used the Lumix Leica DMC-TZ9, which was very good, however all recent images would have been taken with the Olympus Pen EPL-7 (also amazing).

Why don't you make youtube videos?
I'd love to and may start at some point but I have a very busy life and cannot find the time - most blog posts are written well in advance anyway and school is manic; I wouldn't be a regular uploader. Maybe in a year or two.
